Please note the following important Health & Safety information for visitors:

  • You must have a reasonable level of mobility and take responsibility for your own safety. There are steep stairs to climb and trip hazards to avoid. This is a working ship not designed for passengers, so physical access may be challenging. Unfortunately, the vessel cannot accommodate strollers, pushchairs, mobility scooters or wheelchairs.
  • You must wear fully enclosed, flat-soled footwear: flip flops, sandals and high heels are not permitted for safety reasons.
  • As you will be climbing steep, open stairwells, long pants or shorts are recommended.
  • You are responsible for your own property and possessions while on board the vessel.
  • You are required to use the handrails when using the stairs. Please ensure that you are not carrying any items (or children) that would prevent you from maintaining three points of contact. We recommend using a backpack to carry personal items on the tour.
